time on r7800 falls out of sync, after 2 days its 3 mins behind according to router time displayed on gui. compared to any other ddwrt router, set same time zone, ntp is on etc. only the r7800 is doing this, going back it too seems to be another thing that started since the latest ipq changes, the same ones that made qos worse (setting way over what i want to get, to get it).
something is wrong with internal syncing. the r7800 is also a wds ap, & a dir-862L is wds sta to it.
r7800 up time for wds sta: 1 day, 20:31:50
dir-862L uptime to wds ap: 2 days, 0:05:30 _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

thank u, that fixed it in r30853 time is in sync so is uptime between the wds link again. hfsc qos is normal again to what i set, so is htb for upload only, but htb remains lagging behind whats set on the download as its always done
do u know what would happen if the clk freq was reduced more? would it cure htb downlink or cause the router to desync again? _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

Not really, it was just inconsistent with other clocks. Now it's ok, so it can't be changed to any other value

Hi. I have DD-WRT v3.0-r30826 std (11/01/16) installed on the R7800 and am trying to find maximum functional transfer speed.
The newest device I have, Microsoft Surface Pro 4, only connects at VHT80 even when right next to the router with 100% Signal Quality (not shown in screenshot).
Is there something else required to connect at VHT160? Is it possible?
I tried 100+upper and 128+lower. The other options aren't available in the Wireless Channel dropdown.
The best connection I was able to get is VHT80SGI. I'm not sure what that means, but the TX and RX rates both said 866M. There are a lot of transfer errors when copying a video file over the network but I get about 40 MB/s (320 Mbps) which allows me to play bluray disks, which is cool.
I don't really need more speed but wanted to see what was possible. This is probably the max.
Yeah, right after posting I remembered I had switched over to Germany to up the TX Power. Setting things back to USA provided access to the lower bands again.
I'm still not able to connect higher than VHT80SGI. But, with it set to VHT80, channel 36, Upper, I'm able to consistently transfer at 40-45 MB/s without rx/tx errors.
Has anyone been able to run ddwrt on R7800 and gotten VPN client mode to work? If so which version works?
I got the VPN client to work on Kong 30880M build. But I ran into another issue. The 5ghz virtual adapter(ath0) isn't broadcasting its SSID. 2.4ghz virtual adapter(ath1) works fine.
I got a really strange problem after going back to stock firmware from DD-WRT Kong.
Wireless is not working anymore, ath0 and ath1 devices are not showing up in /dev.
Factory reset isn't changing anything.
If I go back to DD-WRT wireless is working fine.
Does someone know how to fix this strange behaviour?
EDIT: Should have read the whole thread, sorry!
Trying to fix it later like mentioned some posts before:
After returning from DD-WRT to stock firmware:
1) enable telnet: http://191.168.1.1/debug.htm
2) format overlay partition: mtd erase overlay_volume
3) hard reset

i noticed my wifi leds are slightly dimly lit when its powered on, this normal or..? i thought it was light bleed from power & wan led for months. i assume no current wifi led support means flashing responses to traffic like r7000 _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)
